Reply To: ashkenaz

Guys I know that not every ashkenaz looks like the Aryan race. Whatever it may be, the bottom line is you can pretty easily tell who is sephardim and who is ashkenaz based on how they look. Repeatedly giving examples of exceptions to the fact proves nothing.

Besides why were/are ashkenaz more inclined to reform, intermarriage, sheitels(even though some Gedolei ashkenaz were opposed to) assimilation. I know it can happen on sephardim side as well but they always boast how they were always at least traditional and kept to marrying only Yidden. Do they have a point and if so what is the reason that it is that way?
